Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

It's around seven o'clock in the evening, which is the busiest time of the night. The streets are full of people shopping, and the flow of people in Central is one of the highest in Hong Kong.

The cinema of Star Cinema is located in the bustling city, and many people come here to watch movies.

Outside the cinema, a girl wearing a mask was looking around for someone.

"Why aren't you coming? The movie is about to start, so you're not coming, right?"

The girl looked at her watch and muttered to herself. She felt unhappy when she thought that the person she was waiting for didn't come.

"At 7:40, there are only 5 minutes left before the 7:40 show of "Drunken Master". Friends who haven't checked in yet, please get in quickly and don't miss the viewing time."

A horn sounded in the cinema to remind the audience who had bought movie tickets but had not yet entered the venue to watch the movie.

"Only five minutes left!"

Listening to the sounds coming from the cinema, the girl became even more anxious.

Biting her lip, the girl decided to call and ask about the situation.

"Chu Hong?"

Before the girl reached the phone booth, a man's voice sounded from behind her.

"You're here!"

Listening to the familiar voice behind him, Zhong Chuhong couldn't help but turn around happily.

"I'm sorry, have you been waiting for a long time? I answered a phone call before departure, so I chatted for a while longer and I'm late."

Lin Baicheng, who was also wearing a mask, walked over with an apology. The two of them had originally agreed to meet here before 7:30, but he timed out.

Zhong Chuhong shook his head: "No, I just came here not long ago."

"Let's not talk about anything else. The movie is about to start. Let's go in."

Lin Baicheng stretched out his hand to Zhong Chuhong, and Zhong Chuhong took it naturally, and the two of them walked into the cinema.

While Lin Baicheng and Zhong Chuhong walked into the cinema, several adult men also walked in at the same time. If you observe carefully, you can see that these people formed a faint encirclement and followed the two of them.

These people are Lin Baicheng's bodyguards. In order not to attract attention, the bodyguards also dress normally.

When checking in and entering the venue, Zhong Chuhong said to Lin Baicheng: "Baicheng, have you seen the movie "Drunken Master"?"

"No, as you know, I was still in the United States when the movie was released at the beginning of the month, and I didn't come back until the middle of the month."

Lin Baicheng shook his head, looked at Zhong Chuhong and said, "So many things happened later. I was at the company during the day, and I was either busy with other things or dating you at night. How could I have time to watch a movie?"

Hearing what Lin Baicheng said, Zhong Chuhong couldn't help but smile shyly and sweetly, obviously very happy that Lin Baicheng could accompany her from time to time.

Lin Baicheng and Zhong Chuhong really met at the dinner after the Miss Asia finals. Afterwards, Zhong Chuhong followed Lin Baicheng's guidance and joined ATV's training class to practice acting. However, Lin Baicheng did not go to the TV station specifically to find her. Instead, people paid attention to her schedule. When she was out of class Find her, ask her to go shopping and chat.

Lin Baicheng is talented and capable. He is a Hong Kong tycoon at a young age. He is not bad in appearance. He and Zhong Chuhong are born just two days apart. Therefore, Zhong Chuhong does not reject Lin Baicheng. After a few times, the two have become familiar with each other. stand up.

Although Lin Baicheng and Zhong Chuhong have not yet confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, they often go shopping hand in hand, and Zhong Chuhong often holds Lin Baicheng's arm, and the two behave intimately.

What's missing now is Lin Baicheng's confession, and Lin Baicheng plans to choose a representative day to confess.

Lin Baicheng and Zhong Chuhong, as well as several bodyguards behind them, walked into the theater one after another. The movie was about to start playing at this time, so most of the people who bought tickets were seated.

There are not many moviegoers already seated in the theater, only about thirty. This is a movie with more people watching around 7:30 in the evening, and the number of moviegoers during the day will be even smaller.

It is normal that there are not many moviegoers, because "Drunken Master" was released at the beginning of the month. It is now almost a month old and is expected to be released next Friday. It has now reached the end of the box office harvest.

The starring role of "Drunken Master" is still Cheng Long and it is produced by Star Pictures. The box office of this movie is much higher than that of "Snake". The box office of "Snake" is only about HK$3 million, while the box office of "Drunken Master" has now exceeded HK$6 million, and it is expected to have a box office of almost HK$7 million by the next release.

The box office of 7 million Hong Kong dollars is actually not low. It is currently ranked second in the annual box office list. The total cost of filming, promotion, and copying of the film is only about 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. The box office share alone is more than 300. Ten thousand Hong Kong dollars, Star Pictures can earn nearly three million Hong Kong dollars.

This is just the income in Hong Kong. For such a popular film, the overseas income is usually higher than the domestic one, because there are more countries where it can be broadcast overseas.

Preliminary estimates indicate that "Drunken Master" can bring in revenue of no less than 10 million Hong Kong dollars for the producer, Star Pictures.

Making movies is really profitable, and a successful movie can bring in at least 10 or 20 times the profit; but the risks of making a movie are also very high, and even if you make a bad movie, you may not even be able to recover the cost.

After the movie started to show, Lin Baicheng and Zhong Chuhong were no different from other moviegoers, watching the movie seriously.

In the movie "Drunken Master", Lin Baicheng saw more of Cheng Long's later humorous martial arts comedy style. It is no wonder that this movie will be more successful than "Snake", because the audience likes movies of this style.

Nearly two hours later, Lin Baicheng and Zhong Chuhong walked out of the cinema and wandered on the street.

Lin Baicheng asked: "Would you like to have some midnight snacks?"

Zhong Chuhong immediately shook his head: "Eating too much will make you gain weight. It's so late now, so I don't want to eat."

Lin Baicheng heard this and said: "It's not even ten o'clock yet, let's go shopping for another half hour, and then I'll take you back."

"Um!"

Zhong Chuhong had no objection to this, and it was not too late to go back around 10:30.

"Baicheng, do you think I will become a big star like Cheng Long in the future?"

"He's not a big star yet. As long as you study acting seriously, I'm sure you will become a big star in the future!"

"If that's the case, that would be great. I find performing more and more interesting now."

"As long as you like it. Doing what you like will allow you to invest more emotions."

"."

Lin Baicheng and Zhong Chuhong were walking and chatting, just walking hand in hand on the street. Both of them were wearing masks. As long as they didn't meet familiar people, they were not afraid of being recognized.

Near the two of them, there were Lin Baicheng's bodyguards following them. The bodyguards didn't follow too closely, but they didn't leave too far either. They were only a few meters away and could protect Lin Baicheng at any time.

Even if it was a date, Lin Baicheng would bring bodyguards with him, and at most he would ask the bodyguards not to get too close. He won't be stupid and wait for nothing. If something goes wrong, he won't even have a chance to ask for help. He doesn't want to finally become a rich man but die before he can enjoy it.
